Linde Werdelin Tattoos The Oktopus Moon Watch
Earlier this year, we brought you word?of a new model from Linde Werdelin, the Oktopus II Moon. ?Today, we've got word of a new version of that rather interesting watch, and it's quite a fun twist, one that I'm partial to and that being engraving. ?Don't get me wrong - the luminous, hand-drawn moon phases are a very fun addition. But, when I see artistic engraving taking place on a watch case however, that's what I'm drawn to, given its relative rarity.The case starts out as a standard Oktopus II case (44 x 46 x 15mm), but made from 18k rose gold - then it's handed off to the engraver. ?This is why this watch is known as the Oktopus Moon Tattoo - the engraving on the case itself very much carries the look of an ink tattoo. This is the second event "tattoo" watch that Linde Werdelin has created, the first based on a similar watch, the original Oktopus watch.From a straight-on view, it actually looks like the engraving appears to be subtle. ?Turn it to catch the light, though, and the be

Introducing the Steinhart Ocean One Vintage Dual Time
It's been quite some time since we've written about Steinhart, the German brand known for producing some of the most affordable Swiss-made watches on the market. But a few days ago, the company sent out a press release that caught our collective attention. Today, we have the pleasure of introducing Steinhart's latest addition to their Ocean line, the Ocean One?Vintage Dual Time.As you may have guessed, this isn't an original design from the brand. Rather, the Ocean One Vintage Dual Time is Steinhart's take on the legendary PanAm Rolex GMT, a watch first developed by Rolex in 1954 for Pan American World Airways. Pan Am was the first airline to offer commercial international service, and as the lore goes, the airline worked with Rolex to create a watch that could meet the needs of the company's transatlantic pilots.
